Trolling The Castro 8-1-13

After shooting my assignment for Edge Media at Sticky Wednesday @ The Cafe, I popped on over to 440 Castro for one of their $2 lite beer specials. This hot, delicious go go pulutang* is what I found.

His name is Esdli Pizban, and he was absolutely sweet and friendly and loved being photographed.

BTW, click on any of these pictures to see my gallery of 41 photos of Esdli and other encounters from that night.

Here’s Esdli giving a fun farewell to this couple, they were spending their last night in town before returning to New Zealand.

I stepped outside for a quick puff puff, and this handsome young man, Tony, was kind enough to join in and bat his eyelashes at me.

As did this brother and sister duo, who had been carrying on at Q-Bar’s Wednesday party “Booty Call“. Which one has more makeup on?

*Pulutang is Tagalog for late night snack.

So I’m working hard at editing my two assignments for this week: Sticky Wednesday @ The Cafe, and JockOFF Thursday @ The Powerhouse. Get your napkins and wet wipes ready, the pics will be up any minute now in the nightlife section of EdgeSanFrancisco.com. The outtakes will be posted here at Photojimsf.com after two weeks.

Trolling The Castro: 2-15-13 Report

It was the day after valentine’s day, almost safe to go to a restaurant. A big bowl of combination wonton soup at good ole reliable “Red Jade” on Church and Market did the trick.

With a full tummy, I was ready for a trolling expedition in the Castro.

My first stop was the Midnight Sun’s “Fridays Are For Men”. Promoter Joshua J. Cook was bartending, and he was so kind to spring me my favorite, a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. He produces events at several San Francisco venues, and always has the sweetest, juiciest gogos.

I heard this hot new guy in town, Ethan, was dancing there.

Ethan has performed recently at #HOMO at Beatbox, and at the Mr. Powerhouse 2013 and Hookie Awards event. On all three occasions, he’s been an absolute gentleman, graciously indulging me with my camera, making it almost impossible to stop and turn away.

And then there was this other hottie, Gio! Very frisky, and he tells me he dances regularly at the Powerhouse and to come see him there too.

One more gratuitous eyeful of Ethan before my trolling expedition moves on.

As usual, Midnight Sun had a line out the door. Edge was about 3/4 full, and had two gogos, taking turns. Toad Hall looked almost full.

Around the corner, I spotted Chad Stewart dancing at Q-Bar, and decided to pay the small $3 cover. Dj Chris B was manning the booth, and the place was filling up quickly. In a half hour, it went from a third full to 3/4 full. This is his new weekly Friday event: “Pumped”.

The light was pretty dark, and my camera just would not cooperate. But I did trick out this one pic since Chad Stewart is someone I MUST share with you.

It was almost getting to be my bed time, so I trolled on up a few doors and scoped out 440 Castro. The place was packed, no line but half a dozen smokers hovering outside. I quizzed the door guy why his bar is packed when most the others aren’t? He said good drinks, cheap drinks, and the best bartenders.

Since they had no dancers, and my eyes were getting droopy, I called it a night turned ship back to port. No line at the Cafe, but a scruffy crop of ragamuffins lounging quietly at Officer Jane Warner Plaza.

The Lookout looked half full, the Cafe Flore was empty. Hi-Tops was packed and loud.

By this time the choo-choo came and whisked me the three blocks to my sprawling villa at the luxury Viking Hotel.

Stay tuned for more posts, but if you can’t wait, why not troll my amazing gallery of 184 more eyefuls of Ethan and the rest of my adventure: Castro Report 2-15-13.
